If you put something in a sync folder on one computer, it shows up in the sync folder on all of the other computers. Think of it as a peer-to-peer network where all of the peers belong to you (Your desktop, laptop, tablet, phone, etc). It’s a file synchronization application based on the BitTorrent protocol. The same people that brought you BitTorrent, the peer-to-peer file sharing application, have created BitTorrent Sync. Or maybe you’re just looking for yet another thing for your Raspberry Pi to do. Perhaps you’re uncomfortable with that, even if they’ve promised that they won’t peek at it. One thing they all have in common is that a copy of your stuff is on someone else’s system. You have Microsoft’s Sky OneDrive, Google Drive, DropBox, and SpiderOak just to name a few. There are plenty of cloud sync solutions out there. If you don’t find the license.bin file, then you should be all set. Go look for it as instructed in the module. At the time of this update, the btsync coming from the Jessie repository still set up a license for me, so I still had to expire it manually. This also means you don’t need to worry about setting up pro features accidentally. It may no longer necessary to manually expire your license, as newer installations no longer opt you into the pro trial by default. Wheezy will still work, but I would expect Jessie to be more up to date.
Updates: Change “wheezy” to “jessie” when setting up the source list. If you have a Pluralsight subscription, please consider watching it.
